I remember reading on WAGNH that it's Christophe's. They could be wrong, though. Anyway, Lollichon's techniques are 'revolutionary' because he doesn't just work on catching and reflexes, he creates complex sessions that work on reflexive decision making:

Lollichon is one of the best goalkeeping coach in the world. His coaching techniques are very unique:

How about we just call them Olimpija?

Name: -Kaplan- Reason: Racist Punishment: Content moderated for 5 daysAbility to create content removed for 5 days.Suspended for 5 days

Player role only, apparently.

I think if Petr goes then Christoph will probably follow.

He's 24! When are we going to buy him back?

Both Nedved and Marotta confirming that Vidal is going nowhere. Btw, Vidal said this a couple of days ago: "Manchester? No, no!"

Yeah, Jose is not too big on rotation. Some players will face this season the same issues that Essien and KDB faced last season. That's why I don't want us to hold on to both Romeu and MVG, because they certainly won't get many games.

Yeah, all the squads are published on the EPL website including the players status and all the U21 players as well.

I would have bet on Romue to be the one on his way out, but he seems to be doing very well in preseason and Marco is still just back from a long term injury. It'll probably still be Romeu, though.

For those who want to check the FA rules: YOUTH DEVELOPMENT RULESSEASON 2013/14Definition 2.2:"the age group into which each Academy Player shall be placed shall be determined by his age on 31 August in the year in question, save in the case of players in the Under 21 age group, who must be under the age of 21 as at 1 January in the year in which the Season concerned commences (ie for Season 2013/14 born on or after 1 January 1992)." http://www.premierleague.com/content/dam/premierleague/site-content/News/publications/other/youth-development-rules-2013-2014.pdf Yeah, Marco is definitely not U21.

How did you arrive at that conclusion? He turned 21 in December 2013, how was he "under 21" in Jan 2014?!

No, I'm pretty sure that players for next season are counted as U21 if they are born after January 1993. That has always been the case for the U21s as far as I know. For example for the 12-13 season it was players who are born after Jan 1991: http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2012-13/sep/premier-league-squad-lists-201213.html Here's another source: "Clubs will be able to supplement their squads with unlimited additional players under the age of 21 on 1st January in the year in which the season commences." http://www.epfl-europeanleagues.com/quota_for_Premier_League.htm

Still much better than what Costa said: "He(Jose) can use me anyway he wants"!

Marco is not U21. He's born in December. Had he been born in Jan, he would have still been counted as U21.

Whatever you say, father

Maybe, but I still think, just from looking at the situation logically, that Torres and one of MVG, Romeu and Mikel are much more likely to be the ones leaving.

Yes, father... (Sorry, you just sounded a lot like someone preaching religion )

Didn't Jose say both are staying yesterday? I think it will be one of Torres and Lukaku, and one of MVG and Romeu loaned out or Mikel sold.

Honestly it makes no sense to have both Lukaku and Torres in the team, and even less sense to have strikers as you said. I hope it's Torres but fear it's Lukaku who'll leave.

So, his return is as good as confirmed. If I'm not mistake, that means that we now have to let at least two players go to comply with the squads rules for the PL.

I feel that point 1) kinda contradicts with point 2)

No I was just complying with your request I think Cesc got the most hype simply because we get to rub it in Arsenal's face. But among the three signings, for me, Costa is no doubt the most important. Yes, Luis and Cesc will offer a lot but we just weren't as desperate for them as we were for a striker.
